Ep237 - Why dogs are creatures of patterns
Sunday Jan 12, 2025
Sunday Jan 12, 2025
- Panos shares a recap of 2024, his favourite episodes of last year and what lessons he's learnt in his dog training experience.
- This week's topic was all about dog's being creatures of patterns and as a dog owner, the importance of acknowledging patterns in your dog's behaviour.
- Your patterns of behaviour influence your dog and now that we are back to the beginning of the year, after some time off, you may notice new or challenging behaviour in your dog.
- A dog can be predictable if you can understand their patterns via body language, situational awareness and what motivates the dog. It's easy only once you can be aware of it.
